The guys we have lower than 200 have me every bit as excited as the top guys. Sam HUbbard, Kyle trout, mclaurin, Jones, Thompson, and hooker are very underrated and will provide some surprises if not just for depth purposes. This is a very athletic and versatile bunch, with each one able to play multiple positions (thompson: Dt/de, hooker: s/wr, hUbbard lb/te/de, etc).

two questions, do they just not rate kickers like they do everyone else because i find it hard to believe we have recruited ANY player that would be ranked in the 1200's

second.. 881? really? I have a feeling in 6 or 7 years that young man will be the next poster child when people want to argue that stars and rankings dont matter.

That about covers it.

I really don't understand Collier's rankings at all. Kid is as physically impressive as anyone out there, performed very well in the Elite 11 camps and had a dominant senior year on the field. It's mystifying why he is completely ignored by recruiting services.

Does Collier play suspect competition and that's why his rankings are so low? Amd I thought he just performed average at elite 11? Not saying he won't do well, but is more of a project than JT, more like cardale and Kenny g than TP and Braxton, imo

Average at the elite 11 generally means he is somewhere in the 15-25 best qb in the country. Scout has several of those invited to the elite 11 at around 40, including collier at 43. My guess is their qb scouting is a little off.

Makes sense. And its weird that every site has him as a middle of the road prospect. I hope for him to prove everyone wrong. And the recruiting of high end skill position players will help him greatly in the future.

He committed to the wrong school. Had he committed to Florida State or Alabama, he would be in the top 100 lol.

Provided Solomon Thomas, Malik McDowell & Derrick Nnadi make their Official visits, I'd say Ohio State has as good of a shot as anyone. I think the staff wants at least one OL & one DL.

Yea, nice bump over aTm. Trying to adjust for the numbers differences it looks like we are dead even with Bama and LSU at the top. Good news especially considering the day they both had on Thursday.
Also looking at scout.com we are top 4 with LSU Bama and aTm all being about equal.

The final Top247 for 2014

Biggest movers in the Top100
Erick Smith, S, Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville – Ohio State commit
Move: Up 226 spots to No. 61

Smith was among the biggest risers at the Army Bowl due to his ability to play cornerback and his aggressiveness in run support. We won’t be surprised if he turns into one of Ohio State’s top commitments for 2014.

Sam Hubbard, ATH, Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller – Ohio State commit – Regardless of what position he plays at the next level, Hubbard is too athletic at 6-foot-6 not to make a big move. He is up 100 spots to No. 123.
